We explore attractive dipolar interaction in indirect excitons (IXs). For one layer of IXs a single pair coupled quantum wells (CQW), the out-of-plane IX electric dipoles lead to repulsive between IXs. The is realized 2-CQW heterostructure with two layers separated CQW pairs. found both experimental measurements and theoretical simulations that increasing density causes monotonic energy reducti...

Monotonicity is a constraint which arises in many application domains. We present a machine learning model, the monotonic network, for which monotonicity can be enforced exactly, i.e., by virtue offunctional form . A straightforward method for implementing and training a monotonic network is described. Monotonic networks are proven to be universal approximators of continuous, differentiable mon...

In the article, a notion “logarithmically absolutely monotonic function” is introduced, an inclusion that a logarithmically absolutely monotonic function is also absolutely monotonic is revealed, the logarithmically complete monotonicity and the logarithmically absolute monotonicity of the function ` 1+ α x ́x+β are proved, where α and β are given real parameters, a new proof for the inclusion t...

Contour trees have been used in geographic information systems (GIS) and medical imaging to display scalar data. Contours are only defined for continuous functions. For an image represented by discrete data, a continuous function is first defined as an interpolation of the data. Then the contour tree is defined on this continuous function. In this paper, we introduce a new concept termed monoto...

Incremental parsers have potential advantages for applications like language modeling for machine translation and speech recognition. We describe a new algorithm for incremental transition-based Combinatory Categorial Grammar parsing. As English CCGbank derivations are mostly right branching and non-incremental, we design our algorithm based on the dependencies resolved rather than the derivati...

In this note we make a comparison between the class of monotonic TU cooperative games and the class of superadditive TU cooperative games. We first provide the equivalence between a weakening of the class of superadditive TU games and zero-monotonic TU games. Then, we show that zero-monotonic TU games and monotonic TU games are different classes. Finally, we show under which restrictions the cl...

The use of composite materials is an effective technique to enhance the capacity of reinforced concrete columns subjected to the seismic loading due to their high tensile strength. In this paper, numerical models are developed in order to predict the experimental behavior of square reinforced concrete columns strengthened by glass fiber reinforced polymer and steel bars and unstrengthened colum...

We study the ?-vacuum of QCD using two-flavor chiral perturbation theory (?PT) in presence a uniform, background magnetic field calculating field-dependent free energy density, topological susceptibility and fourth cumulant at one-loop order. find that is enhanced by while diminished weak fields larger when ?=0. However, vacuum with ??0, can be either monotonically or relative to their values. ...

in many signal processing applications, an appropriate measure to comparetwo signals plays a fundamental role in both implementing the algorithm andevaluating its performance. several techniques have been introduced in literature assimilarity measures. however, the existing measures are often either impractical forsome applications or they have unsatisfactory results in some other applications....
